I think the most important thing for a tutor is to understand what the student needs and work through those blocks with positive reinforcement. Some students have a hard time understanding concepts while others have no faith in themselves and struggle to retain information. I believe that the best thing a tutor can do for a student is to figure…

Few viable things which a tutor can do to help the students are: a) Deliver to them motivational thoughts and constantly encouraging them to do well. b) Critically thinking about any difficulty which might pose a hurdle in the pathway of student's learning and bring-forth ways to mitigate it. As a tutor, I believe to have the following…

Patience is an essential quality required from a tutor as it is important to acknowledge that every student has a different level of understanding and approach towards their studies, and thus the best method of maximising their understanding is to tailor our teaching methods to motivate their learning and provide an encouraging learning…

Psychology Tutor Castle Hill, NSW
From my experience as a tutor, I believe a tutor should be able to connect with a student and ensure that the student trusts them enough to ask any question. A tutor should be open to student input and feedback, to make sure they're getting the maximum benefit from tutoring. Moreover, in my opinion, it is essential that a tutor uses sophisticated…

Inside Acacia GardensTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 7 student Chloe reviewed financial maths concepts like interest, holiday loading, and commission using real-world exam questions, and also practiced interpreting scatter plots.

In Year 8, Emily focused on adding and subtracting like terms in algebra and used tables of values to draw linear graphs by hand.

For a Year 10 student, Ayaan completed class worksheets involving bi-variate data analysis and applied the Pythagoras theorem to solve geometry problems.

Recent Challenges

In Year 9, a student working on trigonometry and surface area struggled to identify which formulas applied to composite shapes. As one tutor noted, "he kept switching between volume and area without checking units," which led to confusion during multi-step problems.

Meanwhile, in Year 6 English, messy written work made it difficult for the student to review grammar corrections; answers were hard to find among crossings-out and over-erased lines.

For a Year 11 student tackling algebraic equations, over-reliance on notes was evident—when asked to solve without prompts, progress stalled and confidence dipped mid-task.

Recent Achievements

One Acacia Gardens tutor saw a big shift in a Year 11 student's maths sessions: after weeks struggling with scatter plots, Harry not only drew them accurately by lesson's end but later shared he'd scored highly on his topic test.

In Year 8, Emily went from needing reminders about algebra basics to quickly factorising equations and independently explaining her steps—she even requested harder problems.

For a Year 5 student who used to stay quiet when stuck, the most recent session showed real change: instead of guessing, he started asking clarifying questions before tackling tricky division problems on his own.

What they say about our tutoring

quote

I just wanted to let you know that Arielle's recent yearly Maths marks were the best she has ever had. Usually he marks are in the high 30's ( the test is out of 60) but this time she scored 50 out of 60! Arielle was thrilled and I know this has really boosted her confidence regarding her Maths abilities as she always felt Maths was too hard. I have noticed a definite change in her attitude to Maths tutoring with Ivan. She no longer dreads the session and is able to remain focused and attentive the whole time. This has given her the confidence to begin her new school next year with a positive attitude towards Maths.

Once again I really appreciate your help over the last few months. The structured format that EzyMaths brings to tutoring appears to provide a clear framework and guidelines for the tutors to work within. Combined with a really outstanding young tutor in Calvin this has had been very beneficial for Dom. I congratulate you on a great model and wish the business success for the future.

Shay is really enjoying the tutoring and Ben is a great tutor.  She is already improving in her maths, which was the objective.  Shay even does her extra math homework without argument which is amazing .  We look forward to working with Ben for the rest of this term and next year.

Local Spots for Tutoring

If you'd prefer not to have lessons at home, tutoring can also take place at a local library—such as Stanhope Garden Library/ Dennis Johnson Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Quakers Hill East Public School.
